V11 also offers a new Web management portal and an automated licensing scheme. The portal, called DS-NOC (Network Operations Center) monitors Asigra’s DS-Client, DS-System and Asigra Backup Lifecycle Manager (BLM) Archiver components. Cloud License Server allows managed service providers (MSPs) to remotely authenticate and update users’ licenses.

Pricing for Asigra Cloud Backup v11 starts at $2,000.
